First of all an update on my collection. No one can ever say "I have too much nail varnish" because really you can never have enough, especially when new colours and effects come out all the time. Below is my collection so far which will inevitably get much bigger.
From top too bottom:
The top box is just full of my odd brands and colours which I don't have enough of to have there own box. There is a few Loreal, Revlon, Models Own and No7.
The next box is full of my favourite all time brand Nails Inc. I have a few mini Nails Inc and quite a few full size bottle. As they can be quite expensive it is definitely worth buying them when they have there special offers on. Also in that box is a few Models Own colours. The new Hyper Gels are a favourite of mine.
The next box is completely for Ciate. They have the most adorable bottles with little bows on which are hard to resist. They are also easy to store because of the way the bottles are molded.When ordering these online you can collect "bows" which can then be redeemed for money of orders.
The next box is full of Barry M nail varnish. There variety of colours is huge which leaves me spoilt for choice. They are definitely a firm favourite of mine and always will be. Very affordable!!!
The last two boxes contain nail art pens, dotting tools, files and striping tape so all the essentials for the finishing touches to my nails.
The Nail Painting Rule!
As you know the must must must products you should own when nail painting is a basecoat and topcoat. It can be hard to find ones that work for you. As I have had trouble with bubbling, chippy and nail varnish not staying on long. Finally I have found a couple which really work.
Ciate Topcoat and Basecoat.Both of this are perfect! The brush is more of a flat brush which allows for an even coverage. They both dry very fast with the topcoat leaving a glossy effect.
Speedcoat £11.00 and Underwear £11.00 from www.ciate.co.uk
I have chosen the Cavier Basecoat which has a slight pinkish tint to is when applied but in no way effects the colour you put over the top. This also dry fast and allows the colour to stick to your nail perfectly.
The Kensington Cavier Plumping Topcoat gives the effect of a professional Gel Manicure, fast drying with the ultimate gloss effect leaving your nails feeling smooth and shiny.
My all time favourite topcoat the Cavier Top Coat. Very similar to the Kensington Cavier Plumping Topcoat but just not as "Gel like". Leaves your nails touch dry in less than a minute. Still with an amazing glossy finish.
- Cavier Basecoat £12.00
- Kensington Cavier Plumping Topcoat £12.00
- Cavier Topcoat £12.00
Nails Inc also do a variety of different topcoats and basecoats which specialise in weak nails, dry peeling nails and nourishment.
